| Title: |
Lighting Control Using Speech Recognition |
| Abstract: |
A system and method for the control of color-based lighting through voice
control or speech recognition as well as a syntax for use with such a
system. In this approach, the spoken voice (in any language) can be used
to more naturally control effects without having to learn the myriad
manipulation required of some complex controller interfaces. A simple
control language based upon spoken words consisting of commands and
values is constructed and used to provide a common base for lighting and
system control.
